How do we become parishes that don’t simply say everyone is welcome, but actively invite people in?
How do we make room for people who are curious about Christianity, returning to faith, wrestling with questions, or not yet sure what they believe?
Alpha is designed for exactly this kind of encounter.
Alpha helps create space for people to explore faith and discover and develop a relationship with Jesus. It welcomes the hopeful, doubtful, curious and questioning, offering a setting where people can explore some of life’s biggest questions.
This isn’t just a presentation about Alpha. You’ll experience Alpha.
We’ll step through an Alpha session together and then unpack what is involved in running and growing Alpha in a Catholic parish.
For parishes seeking to be more missionary and invitational, Alpha provides a practical response: create the space, invite people personally, welcome their questions and accompany them as they explore faith and Jesus.
